Watching the British election returns I feel compelled to point out that the 650 person House of Commons represents 67 million people and the 435 person House of Representatives in the United States represents 333 million. Replace the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. We deserve representation.

I get your point and agree with it, but also I just did head math to see what our legislature would look like if we kept it proportional to the British numbers and whoa.

We have about 5x their population, so 3,250ish legislators?

As it should be. It's a big country. We all should have a say.
